    Glad Vic boosted his trade value tonight.

    Hope Gordon & PJ can do the same.

    Wall will take the ball out of Dipo’s hands

    we better be tanking with no shame next season

    Wall, Dipo, and Wood is not a future core unless u want to be like Orlando

    I feel like he played Ben way too much. He is trying to turn Mac into something he isn't. Just tell Ben to shoot when he gets the ball. He has absolutely zero reason to be dribbling when he gets the ball.

    Not to keep piling on the guy but I'm thinking the Rox are winless with Nwaba starting. The Rox can't afford to start off in the massive holes they've been starting in. Silas is coaching at times like he's tanking.

    I like Oladipo and Wood, it's already working and we had no real practice.

    Why are people complaining so much.

    Ben - Tucker can’t start, they are now bench players ... Wall - Jones - Oladipo - Nawba - Wood

    Jones is literally the player he wants Bmac to be.

    If we scored more than 16 in the first quarter, this might be a different game. Pros:

    - Oladipo looks like the real deal
    - Wood continuing strong after a BAD first quarter
    - Gordon played well throughout
    - Mason Jones!
    - Tate played great aside from a few mistakes

    Cons:
    - Cousins has looked dreadful two games straight now
    - Nwaba
    - Tucker really needs to get his corner 3's going

    Concern going forward:

    We keep talking about how this team will look with a full lineup, but we also have guys who haven't played for years. Cousins seems to be the most behind the curve. Wall is probably going to be load managed going forward. How does House fit in once he returns?

    Final note: This team could have used Jarrett Allen instead of trading him off.

    That’s what worries me. Silas seems unaware.

    You do NOT want to hear "knee" and "Oladipo" in the same damn sentence. JFC.
